Gardeners' Notes:

This is my first rose and it has performed beautifully. I prune it back hard (per my rose book) in April (for zone 6). After flowers fade, I prune back to the nearest 5 leaflet (also per my rose book). The large yellow flowers are beautiful and fragrant (I think they smell of green tea and rose, but I'm not an expert). It is great at repeating its blooms into fall. I transplanted it last fall to another location of the yard and I thought it was a goner, but after the April pruning (and adding a new layer of mulch), it is looking beautiful and healthy. I've also been using Rose Tone - upon initial planting (about 3 years ago), and I've decided to use it monthly during the growing season this year (as suggested on the Rose Tone bag). I've heard yellow roses are vulnerable to black spot, but this rose is doing great...and I'm no pro. : )
